I bought the vehicle in 2013 new from dealer here in Texas. Had all services performed by them. On June 17th I brought in for service including spark plug re-place. About 3-4 weeks later my check engine light came on. I took it back to them to check it out. On the report it reads " Diagnose, Found spark plug loose, Re torqued plug and re-test. Vehicle still miss firing, Performed relative comperssiin test, found cyl #7 @ 9% down. Performed de-carbon to cleave valves, re-tested. Test yielded a leak in exhaust valve. Recommend replacement of left hand side cylinder head assembly"
I keep this car in excellent condition! I don't understand why I have to have this re-built at 108K miles. If Ii keep up on Maint. Shouldn't I be able to run this for 200-300k miles?
